Cytoplasmic incompatibility in insects
1997Abstract Cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) was first described in mosquitoes by Ghelelovitch (1952) and studied in detail by Laven in the 1950s (reviewed in Laven 1967b). Laven observed that crosses between different strains of mosquitoes sometimes failed to produce progeny, or produced progeny only when crossed in one direction (i.e ...

Cytoplasmic Incompatibility and Population Structure
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1997Wolbachiais a maternally inherited bacterial infection common in many insects. These bacteria cause cytoplasmic incompatibility, in which a cross between an infected male and an uninfected female is sterile. Infected females are always fertile, suggesting that an infected male produces a sterilizing product against which infected females are protected.

The etiological agent of cytoplasmic incompatibility in Culex pipiens
Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1973Abstract All individuals of Culex pipiens (wide sense) which have been examined were infected with Wolbachia pipientis . Larvae reared in tetracycline were freed of these symbiotes and remained free (aposymbiotic) in future generations. When males were freed of their symbiotes, they no longer displayed incompatibility.

Dynamics of Cytoplasmic Incompatability with MultipleWolbachiaInfections
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1998Wolbachia infections occur in many arthropods. These matrilineally inherited bacteria cause cytoplasmic incompatibility, in which a cross produces no offspring when between an infected male and an uninfected female. Some populations harbour multiple Wolbachia strains.

Cytoplasmic Incompatibility: Giant steps sideways
Current Biology, 1994The horizontal transfer of a bacterial endosymbiont that is intimately associated with reproductive isolation in insects is now feasible and may, in principle, lead to new strategies for biological pest control.

Environmental effects on cytoplasmic incompatibility and bacterial load in Wolbachia-infected Drosophila simulans [PDF]
The effects of high temperatures, antibiotics, nutrition and larval density on cytoplasmic incompatibility caused by a Wolbachia infection were investigated in Drosophila simulans.

Eradication of Culex pipiens fatigans through Cytoplasmic Incompatibility
Nature, 1967Culex pipiens fatigans is the chief vector of filariasis in south-east Asia. Urbanization has often caused the numbers of this mosquito—and with it the danger of filariasis infection—to increase alarmingly1. The natural vigour, tolerance and fast development of resistance to insecticides of this mosquito necessitate the development of other control ...
